I have been playing around with the web browser widget and while it works in the editor testing, it prevents any project it is in from building/launching. My reproducible steps: - create a new project from blueprint template (i.e 3rd person template) - add the web browser plugin from the plugins menu - create a blueprint ui widget that only has a web browser box in it - have gamemode add the ui widget to the viewport - press launch button (or build for windows), it will build but open to a black screen and a fatal error prompt. I understand it is experimental but it should be build able I would think. Can anyone confirm that they can actually run with this widget? What might I be doing wrong? ---

Hello Smith389238, I was able to reproduce this issue on our end. I have written up a report ( UE-19350) and I have submitted it to the developers for further consideration. I will provide updates with any pertinent information as it becomes available. Thank you for your time and information. Make it a great day ---

Thanks Rudy, I appreciate you looking into it. It is good to know you see it as well. I was contemplating reinstalling ue4 to try to fix some setup/config problem. I can only hope it is something that has a simple fix, and that it can make it into a future version. Given how useful it is to see any webpage, and how nice the widget is to use in blueprints, it would be a shame for it never to be used by any developer due to this build problem ---

This doesn’t work on an unpackaged/built project - and same crashing that is exhibited above (4.10 version) have tried in a blank C++ and blueprint only project and still crashing. Is there somewhere to copy the CEF3 folder to for an unbuilt project? ---

Hello walldiv, The above issue deals specifically with the packaging issue that is being experienced. If you are experiencing a crash within the editor this may be a separate issue. Could you create a new thread (for tracking purposes) with answers to the questions below and provide a link in a reply to this thread? After that I will be able to assist you further. Quick questions: 1. Can you reproduce this issue in a clean project? 2. If so, could you provide a detailed set of steps to reproduce this issue on our end? 3. Could you provide screen shots of any blueprints/widgets that may be involved? ---

Cannot reproduce means that the issue could not be reproduced any longer in the latest build (4.11 at the time) with the reproduction steps provided in the report.
